94 RP/94 WA The 2007 Ausone is a candidate for one of the wines of the vintage, rivaling Pavie and Lafite Rothschild. Its deep ruby/purple hue is accompanied by a beautiful nose of spring flowers, raspberries, black...
The second wine of Chateau Rieussec and part of the Domaines Barons de Rothschild (Lafite) stable. "2007 turned out to be a golden year for these mellifluous, criminally over-looked wines that tend to leave a sticky...
94 WS / 94 VM Offers depth, length and character, with mouthfilling blackberry, raspberry and cherry fruit flavors supported by bright acidity. The long, minerally spine lets additional cherry pit, blood orange and espresso...
18++ JR / 94 WA Savoury, much tighter and denser than the Greffieux (which surely has a sandy element to it?) – this is more recognisably classic Hermitage. Like licking a stone on the finish and bone dry. Very long...
99+ WA Tasted twice at UGC tastings, it was actually under blind conditions that the Climens 2007 re-confirmed its status as the best Sauternes of the vintage. It retains an ethereal bouquet of honey, white peach, apricot...
98 WA / 96 WS Tasted single blind against its peers. Under blind conditions, the Yquem 2007 shines like a diamond. Nevertheless, it is initially rather taciturn on the nose, eventually opening up beautifully with touches of...
97+ AG / 95+ WA / 94 WS/ 94 JS / 94 DE The 2007 Dom Ruinart is the first vintage made entirely by Chef de Caves Frédéric Panaïotis, which shows just how long the production cycle is in Champagne. A...
94 DE / 92 WE / 16.5 JR This is rich and powerful, with beautiful dark fruits that really showcase the Cabernet dominance of this wine. Great persistency, the tannins just unroll through the palate and keep on going,...
91 WS Firm in texture, with layers of red berry, cherry and dark chocolate flavors, offering tobacco notes as the finish lingers against mildly crunchy tannins. 48 cases made. - Wine...
98 JS / 95+ WA / 95 DE The aromas of this show an amazing freshness of flowers and herbs such as lavender, rosemary, and violet. Then it goes to raspberry, candy and currants. Black licorice too. A truly great wine on the...
95 WE / 94 VM / 94 JS / 18.5 JR The wood element is important here, but it is based on a firm Cabernet Sauvignon structure, dry but rich tannins. The wine is a great success for the vintage, giving sweetness, ripe fruit...
98 WA / 18 JR Based on the regular Clos des Goisses but blended with a certain percentage of red Pinot Noir from the same vineyard, the 2007 Clos des Goisses Just Rosé Brut has a lovely apricot color and shows a...
94 BH A magnificently complex nose offers up a mix of both high and medium-toned aromas of mostly red berries but with a panoply of background nuances including leather, tea, underbrush, spice hints, jerky and smoke, most...
19 JR / 93 WA / 93-96 WS / 90-93 VM Sweet, vaguely sticky nose. Certainly impressive for the sugar level! And there’s an attractive savoury undertow that stops it being sickly. Lots there. Reverberates. Long. Very...

98 JS / 97 WE / 97 DE / 96 VM / 95 WA / 18.5 JR This is a step up from the linear and fresh 2006. It shows subtle depth and power with a dense block of vivid fruit that's highlighted with lemon zest, green apples and hints...
96 WA / 94 WS / 94 VM The 2007 Gewurztraminer Selection de Grains Nobles Hors Choix represents a cuvee designation that the Trimbachs also utilized in 1989 and 2000 for wine of near Esszencia-like richness. Essence of rose...
96 JS The purity of fruit and floral character in this wine is very impressive. Full body, with superfine tannins and beautiful fruit. Long seamless texture to this wine from the ultra-fine tannins. Drink or hold. - James...
